For a blockbuster, there is a real effort on the pacing that I can only welcome. As for the treatment of the psychological confrontation between the two characters, I could be charitable if I didn't know the body of work of Hill and Franco. Why was Felicity Jones' character even introduced?

There's a pretty interesting story here about the relationship between a narcissistic psychopath and the victim but at the same time it's not terribly enthralling either. While Johan Hill is very good as the hapless victim, James Franco's performance is lacking, once again. His presentation never changes when it should. He's always James Franco the actor, never making huge strides to get into character.

I was pretty engaged at the beginning but then the story kind of fell flat. It's hard to make a true story a mystery when it's not really a mystery. All three main characters got an opportunity to have at least one weird scene that was goofy or nonsensical.

You've gotta hand it to Rubert Goold and Dave Kajganich. They have managed to water down a compelling story by cramping it into a bonafide 90s thriller format. Borestalgia!

It's true that this has a pretty good story, the most amazing thing was that this was a true crime story that had two comedians in the leads. I thought that Franco did great as the alleged killer and Jonah Hill was great as the disgraced journalist. There is a good amount of tension throughout the movie and it has you throwing out a lot of guesses. I'd really like to read the book that this movie was based on... [Full Review]

This is an interesting drama that is based on true events. The script has some interesting moments and Jonah Hill and James Franco work well together. Overall I would recommend this film.

This film suffers from not knowing what it is supposed to be about; Finkels demise or Longo's lies? In the end, the superficial treatment of both areas means we get no satisfaction from this film. After 90 minutes we know nothing about Longo's back story or motives, and we know nothing about Finkel, his motivations for his errors, or indeed his relationship with ... well, is it his wife? There is absolutely no sense of time scale in this film and therefore no sense of drama whatsoever.

Has all the makings of a solid drama-thriller-a stirring psychological premise, striking cinematography, an unsettling stringed soundtrack-but a shoddy script (not helped by Franco's flat performance as the killer in question) continually disappoints with its lifeless dialogue, suspense-less plot (the courtroom climax is anything but), underwhelming pay-off (the stolen identity bit is resolved in one sentence), and surface-y relationships (Finkel and Jill's never warrants Jones' tense looks).
